I’m getting to this a little later than I would have liked, but better late than never! I look forward to this post each year because it not only lets us reflect back on the amazing stories we read during the year, but also lets us take a gander at some potential wall art one last time (I’m not the only one who frames covers as wall art, am I?)! Our purpose here is to find the best of the best covers, so I hope you’re ready!
Each week you’ve been voting on your favorite cover in our Cover Talk post, and now we’re bringing those winners together into one poll to decide which comics will top our Best Cover of 2017 list. It’s like the Super Bowl of comic covers, and you get to decide the outcome!
How this works: The top covers – as voted by you – are featured below, along with the artists of each cover. Review the covers one final time (there are A LOT, so you might want to document your favorites to prevent scrolling), then vote for your favorites. As always, you will be allowed to vote for as many covers as you’d like. The poll will be open for one full week, and then voting will close. We will then announce the top twenty-five covers of 2017.
